Adequacy of study:

key study

Study period:

05 May - 05 May 2006

Reliability:

1 (reliable without restriction)

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

guideline study

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

EU Method A.10 (Flammability (Solids))

Deviations:

not specified

GLP compliance:

yes (incl. QA statement)

Key result

Test procedure:

burning rate test: preliminary screening test

Remarks on result:

substance does not ignite and propagate combustion either by burning with flame or smouldering along 200 mm of the powder train within the 2 minutes test period

Validity criteria for the measurement of the flammability (solids): 

Target condition according to  guideline:	Actual condition according to  the study:	Validity criteria met:
A description of the substance to be tested, its physical state including moisture content should be stated.	A description of the test substance, its physical state and purity was given	Yes
Results from the preliminary screening test and from the burning rate test if performed should be stated.	Result of the preliminary screening was given. The burning rate main-test was not performed	Yes

Interpretation of results:

not classified based on GHS criteria

Conclusions:

The test item could not be ignited with a flame.

Executive summary:

In a GLP study according to EEC Method A10, a preliminary test was performed to investigate the flammability of the test substance.
The test substance could not be ignited with a flame and it melted. Therefore, the test substance is not considered to be flammable solid.

Description of key information

In a GLP study according to EEC Method A10, a preliminary test was performed to investigate the flammability of the test substance.
The test substance could not be ignited with a flame and it melted. Therefore, the test substance is not considered to be flammable solid.

The test substance is also not considered to be pyrophoric, self-heating and does not evolve flammable gases when in contact with water.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
